DISTINGUISHING THE SCIENCES: FOR NURSING

vol. 3

EN
The article explores the problem of nursing as a practical discipline and suggests that there are several kinds of nursing science. Following the lead of Jacques Maritain and Yves R. Simon, the authoress begins with an account of the distinguishing characteristics of theoretical knowledge, to which the term “science” has historically been applied, and distinguishes it from practical knowledge or prudence. Next she reviews Maritain and Simon’s discussion of two intermediate levels of inquiry that share some characteristics of both science and practical knowledge. Finally, using the writings of several nurse theorists whose seminal ideas in this area have established a basis for nurse theorist’s discussion of these issues, she distinguishes four kinds of nursing inquiry which range from the very theoretical to the very practical.

Złożona natura złożoności

issue 36

PL
Artykuł prezentuje różne ujęcia złożoności: złożoność jako długość opisu, złożoność algorytmiczną, złożoność jako głębokość logiczną, złożoność jako stopień hierarchiczności i złożoność efektywną, która jest związana z teorią złożonych systemów adaptacyjnych. W artykule zostały przedyskutowane liczne problemy związane z omówionymi rodzajami złożoności oraz ontologiczne i epistemologiczne implikacje teorii złożoności. Główną tezę stanowi przekonanie, że nie istnieje jedna, ogólna definicja złożoności, zawsze musimy pamiętać o kontekście. Program nazywany "nauką złożoności" jest również dyskusyjny ze względu na wielość problemów z prawami złożoności i przewidywaniami, które to pozwalają nam mówić w tym wypadku o "nauce".
EN
The article presents various notions of complexity: complexity as length of description, algorithmic complexity, complexity as logical depth, complexity as degree of hierarchy, and effective complexity, which is coupled with the theory of complex adaptive systems. In the article I also discuss many problems connected with these notions of complexity and the ontological and epistemological implications of the theory of complexity. The main thesis is that there is no one, general notion of complexity; the context must always be taken into consideration. The program called "complexity science" is also disputable because of the many problems with the laws of complexity and predictions which allow us to speak about "science" in this particular case.

Minimalism and Expressivism

There has been a great deal of discussion in the recent philosophical literature of the relationship between the minimalist theory of truth and the expressivist metaethical theory. One group of philosophers contends that minimalism and expressivism are compatible, the other group contends that such theories are incompatible. Following Simon Blackburn (manuscript), I will call the former position ‘compatibilism’ and the latter position‘incompatiblism.’ Even those compatibilist philosophers who hold that there is no conflict or tension between these two theories-minimalism and expressivism-typically think that some revision of minimalism is required to accommodate expressivism. The claim that there is such an incompatibility, I will argue, is based on a misunderstanding of the historical roots of expressivism, the motivations behind the expressivist theory, and the essential commitments of expressivism. I will present an account of the expressivist theory that is clearly consistent with minimalism.

“Chi è quest’uomo che osa anche rimettere i peccati?” (Lc 7,49). La trama ed il clou del racconto lucano sulla donna peccatrice (Lc 7,36-50)

PL
The story of the sinful woman (Luke 7:36-50) is an excellent example of Luke’s narrative skills. It presents a coherent plot, abounds in interesting turning points, and shows a vivid interaction between main characters. In the same time, the story is filled with tensions, gaps and ambiguity which regard the gestures of the woman, the forgiveness she receives, and the role which in the entire process is played by Jesus. The purpose of the present article lies in illumining the development of Luke’s account with the use of the narrative approach. The story is divided into scenes and set up in the spatial-temporal, and socio-cultural frame. The scheme of the narration is labeled as a plot of discovery. Its focal point is not the love or faith of the sinful woman, but the identity of Jesus. The full revelation of his divine authority takes place in the pardon of sins granted to the woman (vv.47a.48), which brings to completion the ongoing process of her reconciliation. The article finishes with the analysis of interaction between the text and its readers and with the exposition of the techniques used by the narrator to shape the competences and the choices made by the recipients of the story.
